History
Echo Bridge Home Entertainment, a division of Echo Bridge Entertainment, was founded in 1995 as Platinum Disc Corporation. It was named and had its logo inspired from the real Echo Bridge in Massachusetts. In 2002, Platinum acquired PM Entertainment from The Harvey Entertainment Group. In 2005, Platinum Disc Corporation and Echo Bridge Entertainment merged to form Echo Bridge Home Entertainment.[2] In 2008, Echo Bridge acquired Alliance Atlantis International Distribution.[3] In 2011, Echo Bridge Entertainment and Miramax made a distribution deal in which Echo Bridge will release 251 films from the Miramax catalog, with the other 550 going to Lionsgate and StudioCanal as Miramax had a similar distribution deal with them. On March 17, 2014, after Echo Bridge lost the distribution rights to the Miramax titles, the Miramax releases all went out of print and any mention of them was removed from their website. Lionsgate later expanded their deal with Miramax to include the 251 films previously released by Echo Bridge until 2020, when Paramount Home Entertainment (which parent company acquired a 49% stake of Miramax in 2019) extended their own deal with Miramax to include those 251 films. In 2014, Echo Bridge sold its family library to DHX Media.[4]
In January 2017, filmmaker and producer Steven Paul purchased Echo Bridge.[5]
